General:
  Although totally new automated test and measurement or data acquisition and control systems are frequently developed, it is more often the case that one of your existing machines, measurement facilities, or other  processes will  be modified to incorporate a computer, data acquisition card, measuring instruments, control devices, internet connection, etc. so as to make the operation more manageable and profitable while becoming less operator dependent. Computer based, scientific, research and development, custom instrumentation, distributed computing, and stand alone custom data analysis and visualization systems are a good mesh with my experience and abilities.
  In simpler situations where the full power and extensive user interface of a PC is not needed, microcontrollers  (e.g. PIC®, BASIC Stamp®) may be configured and programmed to act as the system controller. The Basic Stamp is an excellent choice for such small autonomous systems with its friendly interface, quick development time and easily interpreted source code.
